I agree with Melonie -- Quince & Co is on my must try list and I love getting a glance into other people's notions and project bags!

Your notions box looks like you are a skilled crafter! I have so many different little notion pencil cases and one main box. I think I am finally in a place where there are stitchmarkers in all of them and possibly nothing else ;)

Do you actually gauge with the gauge thingy? I use the needle sizer on mine and that's about it!

hi ellen! i do use the gauge thingy~ i'm a very tight knitter so i usually check gauge quince & co is a great yarn company to work with~ i had a question about the weight of yarn i was going to need for a particular pattern. the gal who received my email went as far as to look up the pattern i was anticipating & suggested a better weight than i had picked originally~ they have such beautiful colors, quality yarn & wonderful customer service ~

thanks jesse~ i'm so close to completing the hat & given that we have a few more months of cold weather, he'll get lots of use yet this year~ the header pictures were all taken in & around our woods~ good to know i'm not the only one who is curious about the contents of purses, bags & such things...*lol*hope you're staying warm!
